All the things in the "name" attribute are passed in the $_POST array.
Now, looking at your code, yours may be done via AJAX, because as-is, your <textarea> will not be sent and that send button is an anchor, not a button.

Assuming you posted that, and it is a normal post form, the server would get something like:

Thanks, but still confused

NoEffinWay (Like the name) - thanks, makes sense from what I've seen of scripts, and is getting me in the right direction. Was of the same opinion that <textarea> wouldn't be sent, because it doesn't have a name value, like the other fields do. I thought of putting in a name value, but (again, not a coder) didn't get anything that didn't show up on the page.
